The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Organisation has raised alarm over alleged plan of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to announce fake presidential election results on Radio Chanji.
Chief Femi Fani-Kayode
Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, the Director of Media and Publicity of the campaign organisation, made the allegation at a news conference on Friday in Abuja, The Punch reports.
According to him, the Federal Government has available facts that indicate that the APC has a strong link with the broadcasting station. Fani – Kayode added that the APC would use the radio station to make dangerous propaganda to cause chaos after the presidential elections next Saturday.
“We believe that we have been vindicated on our report just two days ago about the existence of Radio Chanji. This is despite the denials and the lies by the APC about the true situation of things and about their dastardly intentions and sinister plots to use the station for nefarious purposes,” he said.
The PDP campaign director stated that the Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) had confirmed that the radio station existed and that it was possible that it was broadcasting from outside Nigeria.
Continuing the statement Fani-Kayode admitted that the latest revelation by the NBC was of great concern to the ruling party.
“Once again, we wish to point out the dangers of this radio station and the evil intention of the people behind it. Apart from anything else, they wish to use the station to announce false results after the up-coming elections are conducted.
“That is the primary and more obvious intention and motive. There is, however, a less obvious motive and intention and it is as follows. We believe that it is only after the APC has been defeated in the Presidential elections that the secondary purpose of this station will manifest.

“The truth is that they intend to use it to create division, chaos and strife in Nigeria by propagating the most irresponsible form of mendacious and inciting falsehood and provocative propaganda. They also intend to use it to incite their supporters to kill.”
It is worth mentioning that two days ago Fani-Kayode called on the nation’s Department of State Security Service and security agencies to arrest and question Muhammadu Buhari, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, the National leader of the opposition party, and Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi.
According to the PDP campaign director, it became imperative to apprehend the APC leaders because the radio station has been broadcasting falsehood and propaganda,
